The animal in the picture looks like a badger.

Raccoon Letter

You've been on vacation for two weeks, you come home, and your basement is infested with raccoons. Hundreds of rabid, messy, mean raccoons have overtaken your basement. You want them gone immediately. You call the city and 4 different exterminators, but nobody can handle the job. But there is this one guy and he guarantees to get rid of them, so you hire him. You don't care if the guy smells, you don't care if the guy swears, you don't care if he's an alcoholic, you don't care how many times he's been married, you don't care if he has a plumber's crack, you simply want those raccoons gone! You want your problem fixed! He's the guy. He's the best!

Here's why we want Trump. Yes, he's a bit of a jerk; yes he's an egomaniac; but we don't care. The country is a mess because politicians suck, the Republicans and Democrats can be two-faced and gutless, and illegals are everywhere. We want it all fixed! We don't care that Trump is crude, we don't care that he insults people, we don't care that he has changed positions, we don't care that he's been married 3 times, we don't care that he fights with Megyn Kelly and Rosie O'Donnell, we don't care that he doesn't know the name of some Muslim terrorist.

This country became weak and bankrupt, our enemies were making fun of us, we are being invaded by illegals, and we are becoming a nation of victims where every Tom, Ricardo, and Hasid is a special group with special rights to the point where we don't even recognize the country we were born and raised in; " AND WE JUST WANT IT FIXED ". And Trump is the only guy who seems to understand what the people want.

We're sick of politicians, sick of the Democratic Party, sick of the Republican Party, and sick of illegals. We just want this thing fixed.

Trump may not be a saint, but we didn’t vote for a Pope. We voted for a man who doesn't have lobbyist money holding him back, a man who doesn't have political correctness restraining him. We all know that he has been very successful, he’s a good negotiator, he has built a lot of things, and he's also not a politician, not a cowardly politician. And he says he'll fix it. And we believe him because he is too much of an egotist to be proven wrong or looked at and called a liar. Also, we don't care if the guy has bad hair. We just want those raccoons gone, out of our house, NOW.

You are welcome to pass this on. Thousands of people who haven't voted in 25 years seem to be getting involved. The raccoons have got to go!

Considering all the things I’ve seen Asians eat that come out of the ocean, I wouldn’t think that it would be a problem.

Proposal: Japan takes back all their kudzu and we send them 500 good ol’ boys with coonhounds to eradicate their coons.

Japan has it easier with Raccoons, compared to some parts of South America. Colombia has a Hippo invasion problem.
This was started after Drug Lord Pablo Escobar was arrested in the 1980’s.

Escobar had smuggled a few wild Hippos into Colombia to join his group of exotic animals. They were left behind after his death. Left behind to fend for themselves.
Now there are about 215 in that country.
Some estimate that by 2050, the Hungry, Hungry Hippos could number over 1000 if measures are not taken to control them.

Raccoons are not cute cuddley little creatures. They are very vicious destructive predators.

We’ve watched them attack smaller game such as rabbits for a meal. I have trail cam pics of raccoons cornering a house cat with that cat never to be seen again. I’ve live trapped them and they are extremely vicious.

Small animals in trees do not stand a chance. We’ve watched house cats climb trees. Their rate of climb is nothing compared to a coon, as we’ve watched videos where they do not climb trees, they run up trees.

We live in the forest and they are a top nuisance that our state allows to be hunted year around. They are one of the few animals that can be legally hunted at night with a flashlight.

Raccoons are on my hit list.

At least they aren’t blaming the infestation on the Beatles for “Rocky Raccoon.”

They can give them to us if they’ll take our bark beetles and kudzu.

They don’t have that problem in China. I guess in countries where the government is willing to starve its people that’s not a problem.
Confucous say Racoon taste like Chicken.

That’s a tanuki.

Japan does have a problem with raccoons, because they had an anime 50 years ago called Rascal, with a raccoon as a kid’s friend. Japanese pet laws are much looser than American, so a cottage industry of importing raccoons to Japan emerged, and they then invaded Japan and reproduced when they grew up, Japanese threw them out, and they returned to the wild.

Yeah, doesn’t look like our coons, maybe a different species.

Had 3 move into my attic, last year.

Live trapped 2 and escorted them to a higher plane of existence, with a River 10/22

The third fell through the drop ceiling, in the kitchen and ended with a face off in the reloading room

In the immortal words of Tuco, from “The Good, The Bad and The Ugly”, “When it’s time to shoot, shoot, don’t talk”.

Chinese will eat anything. With a little marketing the raccoons would be worth a lot of money.
